TO ALL WHOM IT MAY 'CONCERNz Be it known that I, R. J. NUNN, of Savannah, in the county of. (lhnthem, nndrBlss-telof Georgie, heveinvented:

. new and useful improvement in Pins;l and I do hereby deelereth#fthefolltivrliirgy il l fulLeleer; end exnet description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art toimskefalndlletlje esme,`refere noeibe ing hid to the accompanying drawings, forming s. part of this specification, in whielgnn' Figure 1 is e side elevation of my invention.

Figure 2 is an inverted plan view of the v5eme.

The object of my invention is to consti-netA a pin'for securing togethetplrteo-gsrments and other lu-tizles 'insuch menner'th-ntit shall notcaluallyslipoutloftplaceyorbe eaeilywritlixlzraitlz.,A

My invention consists in constructing the pin with one or more swells or suini-gements s t or neer its point,

the shoulders of such enlargementsto be barbed, square, ,or bevelled, accordingly, s to whether the pin is to be movable or placed 'permanently in the garment or other `articles. i

A designates e. piu, constructed accordingto my invention; b represents the enlarged nortion,which',` in the present instance, commences at the point and gradually increases to its terminatingpoint. The shoulders of the enlarged portion are bevelled or rounded of, so ss to facilitate the withdrawal of the pin when desired. A pin thus made will not be liable casually drop out of the garment or other article, `and thus the annoyance` of a. garment becomin'g nnpinned will be obviated. For still more ineresing the qualities f this pin `forl i remaning in the article, I make the shoulders square, and' when thus mede it is still more dimeult to remove it.

In cases where the pin is to be permanent,v es, for instence,'in fastening `tegether"pepers; Ieonstruct the enlarged` portion with barbed points pointing toward the head ofthe pin, so that the pin, .beving once been inserted, oennot be withdrawn without tearing sway the peper, o r taking e portion of the nrtiele with `it'when it is drawn' out. The angle at which the shoulders stand with the body of the pin determines thefeoility of its removal.

This shoulder is an essential feature of my invention.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

A pin consisting of a shank, e disk, ball, oval, or other h ead, an enlarged portion, and s. reteiningshoulder,

substantially as described.'
